This looks kinda fun. The trailer kind of assumes you’re familiar with the “magical negro” trope, but I’m sure the movie fleshes it out.

Of course, white folks are getting in a tizzy over it, lots of comments about “well I don’t ask any black folks to make ME feel comfortable!!!” and “this is divisive!”, entirely oblivious to both the trope and broad social implication: that in 2023, black folks are not allowed to bring up historical injustices (much less they look for them to be remedied), be angry about anything, express displeasure with the current state of this, etc lest the white folks be made to feel uncomfortable.

Looks cool. I'm tryna come up with a joke about how white guys buying tickets for it in public will pretend that the full title is "The American Society" but I've got nothing.
